it again! With these words Alf Ramsey sent out his weary players for a gruelling half hour of extra time. They had already played 90 minutes of superbly entertaining football against a West German team determined to play their part in a thrilling final. For 12 long minutes it had seemed that Martin Peters goal had won the cup for England. Then , in the last minute of normal time, Wolfgang Weber had desparately stretched for a bobbling ball and stabbed it past the despairing Gordon Banks. The capacity crowd fell silent. The England players looked shattered. The subsequent 30 minutes proved even more dramatic. Millions witnessed the most contriversial moment in World Cup history, the first ever hat-trick in the Final and an outburst of relief and celebration when the final whistle signalled Englands greatest ever sporting triumph.

Wolstenholme's immortal commentary described this famous moment in English history when Geoff Hurst struck the fourth goal in the 4-2 victory over old rivals West Germany at Wembley during the 1966 World Cup final.It sealed Engand's extra-time victory, making them world champions for the first and only time, and completed the West Ham United striker's hat-trick. Controversially promoted ahead of the gifted Jimmy Greaves, Hurst vindicated Sir Alf Ramsey's selection in style.This 12" x 16" photograph is personally signed by Sir Geoff Hurst and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. It is an incredible piece of sport memorabilia, brought to you at an incredible price.

Advantages: We Won Disadvantages: been a long time since
Picture the scene,England v's Germany,in a World Cup Final,forget political correctness,this is the one that means so much,to so many,for all manner of reasons,and yes it does it.
I had wanted to see this film for for such a long time,To be honest I always wondered,did England really deserve the win?or was it just another sporting ripoff and we were given the World Cup on a plate,because it was played on home territory.Well I'm so ... ...there all,in fact so do the Germans.
All though, I like nearley all the rest of the world knew the outcome,It is still edge of the seat gripping stuff.
I already knew of the legendary names and there skills,but one man really stands out,Alan Ball,they say the modern player is so much fitter and faster now, are they?watch this man,where does he get his energy from?and great skill, he was fantastic,nobody wanted it more.

I had wanted to see this film for for such a long time,To be honest I always wondered,did England really deserve the win?or was it just another sporting ripoff and we were given the World Cup on a plate,because it was played on home territory.Well I'm so glad my fears were soon put to rest,England give it there all,in fact so do the Germans. All though, I like nearley all the rest of the world knew the outcome,It is still edge of the seat gripping stuff. I already knew of the legendary names and there skills,but one man really stands out,Alan Ball,they say the modern player is so much fitter and faster now, are they?watch this man,where does he get his energy from?and great skill, he was fantastic,nobody wanted it more. The Goals were all superb,but the final goal from Jeff Hurst equals any goal I've ever seen,I could describe the play in more detail,but you really need to see the film. From the Kick off whistle,to see-ing the great Bobby Moore wipe his hands clean before shaking the Queens hand, so as to not get her white gloves dirty.Then to watch Nobby Stiles dancing with there Trophy,it is just a fantastic feeling and a must for all England fans. Extra's.. Interviews with the players,and players stastics eg:What clubs they played for, before and after the World Cup.Goal Scorring records and Caps for England. Lets hope they make a similar film in the future about how the boys beat Germany in the 2006 World Cup final,and in years to come that film is reviewed.
Advantages: Gives those not born and those that witnessed it the chance to see England in their greatest sporting triumph. Disadvantages: Price is a little hefty
...only World Cup win from 1966 - we are regularly shown the infamous final goal "they think it's all over...it is now!" but with this DVD we now have a chance to see the full match.
The dvd features the original black and white BBC coverage of the match, with Kenneth Wolstenholme commentating. It features disputed goals, clattering tackles, last-minute equalisers and dodgy officials - the question of whether the Russian linesman would have allowed ... ...West Germany has been a regular question over the years.
Extras include an alternative match commentary provided by five of the England team themselves - Jack Charlton, Martin Peters, Geoff Hurst, George Cohen and Gordon Banks which is often humourous and filled with recollections of their memory of the world cup and the final. There's also text profiles of the England first eleven, a gallery of stills from the match day, three additional mini-programmes, ...
